With Decades of Experience, Our Healthcare Fraud Defense Attorneys Understand the Growing Threat of Zone Program Integrity Contractor (ZPIC) Audits or Unified Program Integrity Contractor (UPIC) Audits
The ZPIC Audit and UPIC Audit exist for a single purpose: to investigate instances of suspected fraud, waste, and abuse in the Medicare system. Zone Program Integrity Contractors (ZPICs)/Unified Program Integrity Contractors (UPICs) are authorized to conduct invasive audits on behalf of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), and they have broad powers to prevent payment of improperly billed amounts and recoup overpayments from Medicare-participating providers and businesses.
Healthcare providers and other medical businesses (including DME companies) are currently facing immense scrutiny in relation to their Medicare billings, including invasive ZPIC/UPIC audits. These audits can represent significant threats to healthcare providers’ and businesses’ viability. At Oberheiden, P.C., our federal healthcare fraud defense lawyers (several of whom are former U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) prosecutors) have extensive experience on both sides of ZPIC/UPIC audits. If you are facing a ZPIC/UPIC audit, we can help you.
